BJP MP denies making comments indicative of party conceding defeat in Bihar

BJP MP, Sakshi Maharaj on Monday said that if his party lost Bihar, it will be a loss for the state.

He reportedly said, “If BJP loses Bihar, it won’t be the loss of PM Modi or Amit Shah, it will be the loss of Bihar.” His comments were being seen as indicative of party’s admission of defeat in Bihar polls.

The controversial MP, however, denied having ever made such statements,

He told news agency ANI, “Pataa nahin kahan kahan se log khabare leke aa jaate hain. Do tihai bahumat say BJP jeetayga. Kuch ka khata nahi khulega. Amit Shah, Modiji ki mehnat rang layegi. (Don’t know from where people gather such news. BJP will get two third majority and some in the opposition may not even get a single vote. The hard work of Amit Shah and Modiji will bear fruits.)”

Meanwhile, anti-BJP alliance leaders maintained their pressure on the BJP and its star campaigners.
